Consider the following chemical equilibrium: N2 (g) + 3H2 ⇌ 2NH3

Now write an equation below that shows how to calculate Kp from Kc for this reaction at an absolute temperature .

Kp = Kc (RT) ^(-2)

Explanation:

For the reaction;

N2 (g) + 3H2 ⇄ 2NH3(g)

We can write;

Kc = [NH3]^2/[N2] [H2]^3

But

Kp = pNH3^2/pN2 . PH2^3

To convert from Kc to Kp

Kp = Kc (RT) ^Δn

where Δn is the change in number of moles going from reactants

to products.

For this reaction;

Δn = 2- (3+1) = -2

Kp = Kc (RT) ^(-2)
